The Trainer's Wife ~ Kailey Gay ~ Episode, 35

One of the things I hear over and over from women in this industry is this:“We love this life… but it’s a lot.”It’s a lot to support it.To build around it.To raise kids in it.And to figure out who you are inside of it.Today’s conversation with Kailey Gay is one I think a lot of you are going to recognize yourselves in.Kailey and her husband, Jason, have built their life in the Western equine world—balancing his career in the show pen with everything that comes with raising kids, managing a household, and the day-to-day behind the scenes.We talk about family, career, moving away from where you started, and what it looks like to grow into this role—not just as a trainer’s wife, but as a woman building a life alongside it.If you’ve ever felt the weight and the beauty of this lifestyle at the same time…this one will feel familiar.SHOW NOTES:Jason Gay TrainingAniCell BiotechShow Sponsor - Shorty's Caboy HatteryFinding Center RetreatsHey everyone, and welcome to Season Two of The Trainer’s Wife.If you’ve been here for a while, thank you for walking this journey with me — and if you’re new, I’m so glad you found us.This is where I sit down with the wives of professional horse trainers in the Western equine industry to share their stories — not just in the arena, but in life.We talk about how they show up for their families, their careers, their communities, and for other women.This podcast is a place to celebrate strong, brave, beautiful women whose roots run deep — and whose impact reaches far beyond the show pen.I’m so glad you’re here.
